How to Sell 60 percent of Your Customers an Upsell

There is a time tested rule that says you can sell 60% of your customers an upsell that costs 60% or less of the original purchase price.

The upsell must be congruent with the original purchase. In other words, don’t upsell a gardening book to someone who just purchased a weight loss book.

Bottom line: We often speak of testing different price points for the main product, but you should also test your upsell prices, too. If you can sell your upsell to 60% of your customers simply by lowering the price to 60% of the product purchase price, it might well be worth it.

With that in mind… how many Internet Marketers in the IM niche are getting this right?
